How to profit from the growth of oil production in the U.S.? Part One.

Eagle Ford shale formation stretches south from San Antonio, Texas and people living nearby can convince yourself every day, the impact on the local economy has a growing extraction of oil. wage growth, reduce unemployment, rising real estate market, along with the growth of consumer confidence, it All this is manifested by the presence of giant oil companies such as Schlumberger and Halibarton on.

After long decades of oil imports, it seems that the U.S. is located just a few years from a point of reversal of the direction, and the U.S. will begin to export oil. The main cause of this turnover is the extraction of oil from shale, not only in Texas, but also in other deposits across the entire U.S..In 2005, the U.S. imported 13.5 million barrels of oil a day, it is almost two thirds of its demand. In late 2012, the oil imports fall to 8.6 million barrels of oil per day, down to about half the current consumption.

Increase in oil production in recent years, progressing at such a rate that, according to Credit Suisse U.S. will remain the fastest-growing oil producer until at least 2015. The projected increase in production of 4 million barrels per day is about three times higher than in Iraq and nearly four times higher than in Brazil, Canada and Russia.

EIA expects that in 2020 will form the world's oil production is 96 million barrels of oil per day. It is expected that this output should have a U.S. share of 10%. Compare this with the current production level of 87.4 million barrels of oil a day, and if we take into account the expected decline in production at current deposits amounting to 10.5 million barrels, we see great benefit increase production in North America can be.

It should still be noted that the new deposits of oil in the world do not meet expectations completely. The Financial Times said that countries like Brazil, Russia, Iraq and Kazakhstan were completely new discoveries "redraw the world map a sharp increase in oil production over the next twenty years."However, the Kashagan oilfield in Kazakhstan "largest oilfield found in the history of the last forty years", as the leaf begins to produce oil after several years of delay until next year, with an estimated production of 150,000 barrels of oil per day, with an increase to 300,000 barrels, which is well below the forecasted target of 1.5 million barrels of oil per day.
